New Pliny The Elder Video By The Famous

March 15, 2011 By Jay Brooks

The San Francisco-based band The Famous regularly plays the beer circuit and can frequently be seen performing at beer festivals and brewpubs around the Bay Area. They’re a terrific band. I’ve seen them several times, most recently at Vinnie Cilurzo’s 40th birthday party at Russian River Brewing. At Vinnie’s party, The Famous did a song created for the occasion, Pliny the Elder or The Pliny Song, an awesome little homage to the beer and the man it was named for. They’ve now recorded a studio version of it, and have created a music video to go along with it. Enjoy.

    Speaking of Pliny, is it true that “PLINY THE YOUNGER” was named after Don Younger? I heard that recently but couldn’t confirm it

    always assumed it was called Pliny the Younger because Pliny the Elder was his uncle.
